SFfT will remain
invisible to your user, while telling them the days or uses left, and informing your
program whether the expiration period is on or over.
You can configure SFfT to count your expiration period in astronomical
days or launches(uses), from 1 up to 1.000 either.
If you wish, your program can also receive information about the reason to not let it run:
the trial period has expired, the installation isnt legit (the SFfT
file or the system clock was manipulated, the program was reinstalled in another folder)
or if there was some technical mishap and the configuration file is missing.
All the SFfT notifications will show only your application name
and also your application order URL. Your user and potential buyer won't know a thing
about SFfT intervention in the general performance.
The SFfT encoding is based on three different sets of
installation data double checking.
SFfT is simple and reliable!

Basically, only TWO things:
How to launch an external application with the Windows API ShellExecute (a not so experienced developer will find all the necessary documentation and code samples in the SFfT Help files), and
How to check on the presence or absence of a certain file.
If you need some more detailed information, you can catch a SFfT broadcasted Windows Message that lets you know if the user's evaluation period has expired, if the user has tried to access your program illegally or if there was some problem with the user's computer and the SFfT configuration file has been corrupted or deleted.

Again, only two things:
Configure SFfT selecting between some simple options, such as the number of your trial version days/uses, and
Add two lines to your project source code.
SFfT Help files will show you which, where and how.
The SFfT installation package also includes a SFfT
Configuration Files Reader so youll always
know which settings any of your newly created SFfT configuration files
contain.
The Help files include all the Windows API
information you may need if you are a beginner, some code samples and step-by-step
explanations.
